UL40 – Non-Contact Ultrasonic Level Sensor for Open Channels
The UL40 Ultrasonic Level Sensor provides accurate, non-contact measurement of liquid levels in tanks, open channels, rivers, and lakes. With a split LED display and measurement ranges up to 70 m, it is ideal for industrial and municipal applications.
Typical Applications:
-
Tank level monitoring
-
Open channel and flow measurement
-
River and lake level monitoring
-
Wastewater treatment
-
Water and wastewater utilities
Description
The UL40 is a non-contact ultrasonic level sensor equipped with a split LED display and advanced SMD/ASIC technology.
It delivers precise and reliable measurements in challenging environments without any direct contact with the liquid. The split-design allows easy installation and convenient on-site monitoring.
With automatic temperature compensation, the UL40 ensures stable readings even under fluctuating environmental conditions. Its durable housing makes it especially suitable for open channel flow, river and lake monitoring, as well as industrial and municipal tanks.
